Mary Ann had a curious mind and loved to understand how things work. Her careers involved working for the Urban Renewal of Ossining, NY, she was an administrative assistant for the Comprehensive Alcoholism Center at Westchester Medical Center in Valhalla, NY and in her retirement she worked for Nielsen Media Research doing what she loved, gathering data for research and analysis. She also loved classical music, visiting art museums and was an avid reader. She especially loved staying abreast of current events. She will be missed but not forgotten as nothing can replace a mother's love. As she would often say... "Carpe Diem".

There will be a private grave-side ceremony for family and friends at 1 pm on Monday January 12th at St. Augustine's Cemetery, Ossining NY.

In lieu of flowers, please continue Mary Ann's legacy in supporting St. Jude Children's Research or a charity of your choice.

The family thanks the aids and caregivers and the Hospice organization for all their support and assistance the last few months.
